Adrian’s Journal #191225

Merry Christmas!

Am I an invited wedding guest? Am I a hired wedding videographer? Arrived Early. In a hotel room. Many People moving around busy preparing. Had early dinner with the photographer. 5 pm. Why am I having dinner with the photographer? Am I the wedding videographer? Did my friend invite me as a guest or videographer? I don’t have the right camera with me. Actually I have 3 cameras in my luggage. However they are not prepped to shoot a night of wedding. Anyway, I’ve lost touch with shooting weddings. It’s been a long time. Should I give an excuse to leave? Am I even invited to the wedding? My daughter is going through the guest list. Is my name on the list? I asked. Yes I am. Fear. Doubt. Stress. So in the end, I asked the groom. Did you hire a videographer? Sigh. Relief. I am a guest. He has hired the videographer provided by the venue for cheap. $150.

Thank goodness! It’s just another recurring nightmare.

What are 3 challenges accomplished yesterday?

  1. SHOT, EDITED, POSTED a video to Youtube… Zhiyun Smooth 4 Slow Motion Tutorial… a Christmas special… https://youtu.be/R288fDRap8Q
  2. Blogged AVI… MKBHD smartphone awards 2019… https://adrianvideoimage.com/best-smartphones-in-2019/
  3. Learned about the Differences between videos on IG and YT… people go to IG to relieve stress… people go to YT for information… bluntly, there is no need to think on IG… IG videos stand on its own without sound… use IG to direct people to YT with a teaser… Thanks kiddos for the clarification.

Christmas eve dinner with parents and brother… baked chicken… Thanks ma and pa…

What 3 challenges will I complete to make today great?

Just one…

  • Enjoy a quiet family time this Christmas day.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name.
